lpv:translated text	". Mr President, Mrs Martens has put a great deal of effort into drafting this report, and there can be no question that it is very useful in many respects. I cannot help but point out, however, that it makes no direct reference to certain issues that are of absolutely key importance, both for Africa and for other very poor countries. We will not help these countries merely by setting up funds, or by cooperating with the same old organisations. We need to draw attention to the fundamental goals, the most important of which is education, education and education. Further goals include hygiene and health, and support for the local economy. I would repeat that it must be the local economy that receives our support, since this is what will help people on the ground. Ladies and gentlemen, this report would be a very welcome development, if it were not for the unfortunate fact that it has fallen victim to something that crops up all too often in this House. An ideological slant has been put on it, which is entirely uncalled for in a debate such as this on aid for developing countries. Once again, ideological references to reproductive health and reproductive rights have been included, even though they are completely out of place. We really cannot allow every text we adopt to be peppered with various extraneous references of an ideological and feminist bent, for they are indeed feminist. They are entirely uncalled for in this instance. I would therefore call on the House to lend its backing to the amendments tabled by Mr Szymański. Amendments 1 and 3 highlight the fundamental goals to which I referred, namely food, clean water, better sanitary conditions, vaccinations and mother and child care. Amendments 2 and 4 seek to delete the reference to reproductive rights, and to replace it with a reference to basic health care. We really should not put an ideological slant on every debate held in this House."@en1
